Built to be a traveling partner for sensational artists, Numark V7 Motorized Turntable Controller is the kind of gadget that any DJ or similar music fan should possess in their list of useful tools.

During my research of Numark V7 reviews, I found that what stands out with the customers is the design. The unit had an all-metal enclosure and brushed anodized black aluminum finish giving you a lot of protection all while weighing at just 16 pounds. The V7 is made very rugged, robust and very strong. The buttons are all made of rubbery material and they “click” when being pressed, so you know when it’s pushed.

Despite the massive number of buttons, bunch of knobs, 2 switches, and some other features, the V7 has been described as very easy to use. It also has an excellent feel when you are cueing the tracks. While working on the V7, it’s designed the way you don’t need a mouse.

Pros and Cons

Pros

The V7 from Numark is a turntable MIDI controller USB compatible with all MIDI software. The unit operates on a 24 bit sound card with 2 A and B RCA stereo. The motor is very high torque, with 2 speeds direct drive with a real 7” slice of control vinyl. The Platter is switchable between 33RPM and 45RPM for the speed that feels more comfortable for the user.

Easy setup
Very easy set up from assembling to software launch. The controller is supplied and compatible with Serato ITCH software and is MAC and PC compatible.

Buttons and sections
The turntable controller is a stunning and powerful piece of equipment. It comes with a variety of buttons and selectors, but none the less, the controls are laid out in a logical order. It has an effects control section for effects, strip search and excellent controls for searching and downloading tracks as well as rich section for searching and loading tracks. The device is designed, so you don’t need a mouse to operate it. The loop section hold features such as loop in and out, re-loop, shift, X2, 2, etc.

Twice the deal
The controller is so impressive that it holds a LINK connection that allows you to link 2 Numark V7 controls with a single USB cable, it can also be connected with an X7 mixer, also made by Numark.

Cons

Vinyl wears out
Not necessarily a disadvantage, but playing the same 2 records over and over can wear them out. If you are djing off mp3’s, it can be too late until you notice how badly the vinyl can be damaged, it comes to a point where it is so worn out that the needle also needs replacing. Another worry is the small platter size, with only 2.5 inches of usable, scratchable, vinyl controller space.

Software good, but not best
Although Serato has updated their software to 2.0, upgrading it with lots of features that would make any DJ happy, the general view is that Traktor is the industry standard. This is also not necessarily a con, but this controller could do wonders on Traktor.

Conclusion

The V7 is a masterpiece. The work Numark have put in the design is remarkable, the combination of features is what makes this a reliable product. Every button and function has a purpose and a place.
